Xi,  you've hit this list up with the same question 4 times I think,
all in different threads.  Please just use one of your existing
threads rather than restarting the troubleshooting process.

Also, you might find luck in looking for help in the ivtvdriver.org
mailing lists.

I suspect that you upgraded your kernel but did not upgrade IVTV drivers.

Please post output to "uname -a" and "ls -l /dev/video0".

Also post output to "dmesg | grep ivtv" as Bill requested.  Please
continue to use this thread and not start a new thread.

Thanks,
Billy
